The whale is back DeepSeek dropping manifold-projected hyper-connections right after the holidays is the kind of energy we needed for 2026. Stabilizing those long-range skips by enforcing geometric alignment instead of letting them warp the representation space elegant fix

Systematic AI Training Pipeline Evolution

The training pipeline is genius: Stage 1: CPT on 500B tokens of structured code tasks
Stage 2: Two-stage SFT with error masking
Stage 3: RL with chunk-level optimization Each stage builds on the last. No shortcuts. Just systematic capability building.

IPA: Chunk-Level Credit Assignment Breakthrough

Here's the breakthrough nobody expected: They introduced IPA (Interaction-Perceptive Agentic Policy Optimization) that assigns credit at the CHUNK level, not token level. Tokens are too fine. Trajectories are too coarse. Chunks align with actual tool-use semantics.

Building the ecosystem before the model

They didn't just train a model. They built the ENTIRE ecosystem first. → ROLL: RL training framework
→ ROCK: Sandboxed execution engine
→ iFlow CLI: Agent orchestration system ROME wasn't built in a day. The infrastructure came first. The model came last.

2025 was a defining year for Wayve.

We founded Wayve on the belief that embodied intelligence would unlock autonomy at scale. After eight years of pioneering deep tech research, this year marked a true inflection where Wayve became global and commercial.

2025 was a defining year for Wayve. We founded Wayve on the belief that embodied intelligence would unlock autonomy at scale. After eight years of pioneering deep tech research, this year marked a true inflection where Wayve became global and commercial. Wayve went global 🌍 * A year ago we were just driving in central London. In 2025 we drove autonomously in 500+ cities across Europe, Asia, and North America — 43% with zero prior training data, showcasing the generalisation of AV2.0 * Expanded operations across London, Silicon Valley, Tokyo, Vancouver, Tel Aviv, and Stuttgart, welcoming exceptional talent and partnering with the world’s leading automotive manufacturers Wayve went commercial 🚗 * Started work with global fleets and automakers to deploy our AI Driver in applications across all levels L1–L5 autonomy * Announced a landmark deal with Nissan, one of the largest global automakers, to bring our AI Driver to their global consumer vehicles from FY2027 * Partnered with Uber to launch robotaxis on their marketplace in cities around the world, starting in London Grateful to our team, investors, and partners for making this possible. Bring on 2026!
